My current drugs of choice are caffeine and TiVo, but there was a time I walked through the purple haze. Sometimes I wish I could still visit that floating cloud of numbed-out pleasure. Most of the time, however, I strive to free myself of every veil shielding me from the beauty and cruelty of life. Frequently, I feel about as successful as Samantha’s sister in Sixteen Candles. But then I remember what a great high I get from simply basking in the sun (so please, stop raining!) or picking out a new batch of flowers or snort-laughing with a friend. Or kissing a new lover. And I am content once again to trade the haze for a purple bouquet.
Purple Haze
Do you enjoyed an unveiled life or prefer a purple haze?

/ February 23, 2009I almost never feel “clear” in the cabeza. I’d love to feel totally awake and aware, no fuzziness or haze at all.
Except, of course, when I’m drinking. Then all bets are off. Bring the fuzzy on!

/ February 25, 2009Ah the purple haze. Good memories. I would totally put these flowers on my kitchen table, it over looks a lake and would create a nice scene.

/ February 27, 2009VBCat: Ah, yes, BALANCE. If only I had any sort of talent for maintaining it.
LiLu: Taking bets off table… NOW.
Egan: I think, as Cat said, if you can maintain a healthy balance, then rock on, or bop away as the case may be.
JP: I am completely envious of your view. You must post some season pics soon!
